Here's a great project we've been lucky to be able to support in Bolivia.

Here's a great resource on #trustbasedphilanthropy that our friends at Global Impact shared with us this summer. These simple principles are ones that we incorporate into the way we work with our partners every single day. A big thanks to The Whitman Institute for putting together this resource. Check them out for other great resources to help you along your own trust-based philanthropy journey, or reach out to us because we would love to chat!

“As we know, in conflict areas, women are always on the frontline to help with the conflict resolution. But at the peace table, women are neglected”
Check out this quick video to hear Hanifah Haris discuss what our partner, Asian Muslim Action Network (AMAN) is doing to support the work, and promote the recognition, of women peace-keepers in Indonesia.

Dignity. Everyone deserves it and we chose to work with organizations that value it and practice it with the communities they work with.
Ghania Chaudhry, of @findingrefugegr, explains how dignity is a core value of their organization, and how they refuse to use exploitative imagery of the people they serve even if it costs them funding.

During a conversation with Dhyta Caturani, of @purplecode_id, we asked her what makes for an effective donor and her answer was short and simple. Ask. Ask about what's going on in the community and what the needs are. So simple. If you were to do a google search of that same question right now, most of the results focus on you the donor, and not on the communities you are trying to support. Very few of the results discuss leading with curiosity and listening to what's happening on the ground. This is a big reason we at Move92 strongly believe that global philanthropy needs a major culture shift. A shift away from the donor's personal agenda, and towards the actual needs of the communities we want to support.
What else do you think makes for an effective donor?

The newest project we're supporting is taking place in #Bolivia where we are supporting the Bolivian Women Entrepreneurs Business Empowerment (BWEBE). This project is going to work with 24 female entrepreneurs to support their ventures. Here are some of the entrepreneurs from the project along with what they are trying to achieve.

The Move92 team are all excited to cheer on @anton.cooper in his Olympic mountain bike race later today. Anton spoke at our recent fundraiser for @phaplumtbclub and he now has a lot of new fans in Nepal. A global audience will be sending you good vibes today Anton!!!!
Earlier this year Move92 and @himalayantrustnz gave a collaborative grant to @phaplumtbclub to build a pump track as a way of addressing increased school drop out rates in the lower Everest Region. Well, here's an update on that project from Ang, the guy who came up with this whole idea:
"It's safe to say in business terms we 100% captured the market. The pump track was so popular that we saw 60-plus kids waiting to use the pump track after school. It became so popular that we needed to schedule sessions for the various age groups during the week."
"Thank you to everyone for believing in us and trusting in this initiative. We have learnt a lot - including how our trails will hold up in the monsoon season."
"You are now seeing mountain bikers coming to the region and staying three or four nights, which has aided the economy and supported the accommodation sector."

At the end of May we held an interactive story telling event to bring awareness to the current situation in Myanmar. We had three story tellers, two musicians, and over a hundred people join us for this online event.
For the full recordings of each of the stories, follow the link in our bio.

What do you think?
A few weeks ago, at the end of a meeting, we had a really interesting discussion on what solidarity is and what it isn't. Solidarity is one of the words that sounds nice, is used often, and is usually really vague. We want to hear about your stories of solidarity? When have you stood in solidarity with others? When have others stood in solidarity with you? What did it look like?

Meet Ruby!
Ruby Kholifah is the Secretary General of The Asian Muslim Action Network (AMAN), one of our partners in Indonesia. Ruby is a peacebuilder and has focused her efforts on interfaith peace efforts in Indonesia, and ensuring that women have a strong role in the process of peacebuilding.
We worked with Ruby and AMAN to provide them with flexible funding that they used to ensure the government was still prioritizing gender-based issues throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as working with communities to repurpose abandoned land into farms and gardens to relieve food shortages.
Learn more about AMAN and all of our other wonderful partners on our website!
